Let me catch you up to speed here... During the week of November 15th, Carl approached me with an offer to come work for him out in L.A. I accepted his offer on Sunday, November 21st. This means that I will be moving to L.A. on December 20th. We are starting up a new studio that will initially focus on video production, sound mixing, and editing. I resigned from my IT day-job on Monday, November 22nd with my last day of work being Friday, December 17th. This is a huge life shift for me, as I'm leaving IT and moving into the career I've always wanted and I get to work with a friend I've known for almost 22 years. This will also give me the ability to grow Suncoast Studios a lot. Of course, the hardest part is leaving Alex, Nel, and the kids, who are my family now....

Here It Comes…
So, I've been busy with a lot of things pertaining to a HUGE announcement I'm going to make up here soon - probably in the next couple of days. So, I dropped the P90X for a little bit and have been spending time prepping for this announcement. Tonight's the last night I'm going to be at Arnold's place. I'm moving out tomorrow into a small apartment to save money (oh, and he sold the house, so I gotta go anyway). So, I did some final packing and now am relaxing the rest of the night by catching up on a bunch of older podcasts. I'm going to watch Sherlock Season 1, Episode 1 and The Walking Dead Season 1, Episode 1. I bought them on iTunes earlier in the week and haven't had time to watch them until now.
Weekend Update
I spent Saturday at Vinoy Park in St. Pete eating a lot of BBQ at RibFest 2010. Got there around 10:00am or so and dove right in on the rib scene.
In Which I Commit…
I'm eating a decent dinner of chicken tenders with a slice of pizza. Diet Coke. Why do you care? Well, you don't. However, I'm telling you because it's my last meal... Tomorrow morning I get up an hour earlier and begin the P90X workout series. I'm committing to it to get in shape and feel better, and I'll be eating better again. I've let myself go the last couple of months and gained too much weight. And to motivate myself, I'm gonna put it all out there... Well, uh, out here... UP here. We'll start by weigh-ins and open up to full menus, etc. very soon. Weight: 223.6 lbs.

I had an amazing time at Alex and Nel's yesterday. I got to their place around 4:00pm. I had brought some items to make cocktails and immediately dove into bar-tending. First up was shots of Brain Hemorrhage, which consists of peach schnapps, Bailey's, and Grenadine. Then I poured some Dra-Kahlua Martinis which had Cointreau, Congnac, Kahlua, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Really good. Lastly, I threw together Melon liqueur, Bailey's, and vodka martinis. We never finished them as they were pretty strong and we were all full from dinner. We took the kids out Trick Or Treating. Brandon dressed up as Darth Vader and Ryan went as the older Anakin Skywalker. I took several photos and videos, but one in particular I decided to spruce-up: After a couple of hours out and about, we headed back and the kids had some candy and went to bed and us adults hung...
